I am my aunt’s caregiver. She has been on Nexium for several years. Should this be a lifelong prescription?
There is no research to require a life long prescription for any drug. The drugs were studied in 30.60 year olds–after age 70, just be sure you have a proper quality of life.
I was told that if you don’t have blood sugar problems you don’t need to eat gluten free food.
Eat what you like. Most people with either type 2 diabetes or problems created by the pharma industry using a single blood sugar test and an artificial blood sugar number, are perfectly able to eat what they like.
Do Doctors get money from pushing drugs for medical companies?
Of course!
Dr. Jones what are some natural ways to lower my blood pressure?
The best way to lower your blood pressure is to stop taking it. That is what I have done. The numbers used, such as 150/90, are totally artificial. In addition, there is a thing called “white coat hypertension” which means your bood pressure is higher in your doctor`s office than at home.
What is your opinion about drugs that have legal settlement commercials (such as Januvia) running but are still being prescribed? Should patients insist on another drug even though the Dr’s attitude is the good outweighs the bad aspects of the drug?
Stop watching these commericals and stop taking any of the drugs mentioned. As I have stated in my book, your doctor can not be relied upon in these situations.
